In a statement to Denvernew re-
porter, General Manager Potter scored
a strong point when he said athat it
would be his policy to manage the
Union Pacific as a road having strong
competitors, which had never been the
case with the previous administration.
Former officials seemed not to appre-
ciate the fact that they had rivals Of
powerful prestige to contend with. s.
This is sound proposition in any
business. He who undertakes or affects
to despise his competitors by the mere
fact Of his own self assurance is likely
to be defeated when he least expects
il. The Union Pacific has powerful
competitors and must fight for all it
gets. Under Mr.. Potter's management
1T will ever be on the alert. 1t will
take the offensive instead of the de-
fensive, as has already been shown.
Agressiveness will mark the Potter
management. Manager Oaks. of the
Northern Pacific, acknowledged this
fact in Miner interview not long
since. He knows a strong competitor
when he sees him, and so does Man
ager Potter. Between these veteran
managers and the powerful corpora
tons they represent, if viii be bat
tie Of the giants.-Butte Miner.

TIE socialistic leaders who have
returned from Syracuse are loud in
their denunciations of Henry George
for the action taken BY that agitator
and his immediate supporters in the
convention. They take the ground
that George is guilty of great ingrat-
itude to the organization by which he
was first nominated for Mavor. and
say that his present course has been
adopted without the slightest pretense
of principal and on the lowest grounds
Of political expediency and dickering.
The fact that the George delegation
were all from the cities is cited as
showing that his land doctrine has no
hold upon the farmers, and cannot
get one. 1t certainly seems that the
GeorgeMcMackin management has
taken very large chance in dropping
the positive, definite and solidifed
socialistic element for the delusion OF
unattainable agricultural support. and
that Mr. George viii understand this
very clearly after election if his late
allies run a separate ticket.-Star.

Imprisonment ofa Virginia senator.

Promotion makes some men big
ger than Grant in their own estima-
ton and il is hard to convince them
that they are not the motive power OF
the universe. This is oftener the case
with weak-minded, mediocre men and
it requires the strongest force Of cir
cumstances to make such see them
selves as Others see them. Senator
Riddleberger, of Virginia, is not, in
tellectually, the brightest luminary
that ever shed his rays in the United
States Senate, but the Senator thinks
his incandeseent Jet eclipses the immor-
tai trio, Clay Webster and Calhoun,
and that he is monarch of al he sur
veys at home or abroad, but a little
country Judge taught the Senator a
lesson that viii carry its imprint on
his forehead when he returns TO Wash
ingtOn next winter. The little Judge
simply took his swelling down by or
dering the Senator to prison for five
days, and the following is an account
of the whole affair:
The circumstances leading up TO
the arrest of Senator Riddleberger
are related as follows:
On Thursday a man named Jones
was tried for larceny, and the jury
found that he was insane Jones was
a client of Senator Riddleberger. and
the verdict made the Senator angry.
He was accused of writing a placard
and giving a boy 81 to haul Jones up
and down the town, the latter display
ing the packard meanwhile, which
had written on it: Verdict: Bill
Jones not guilty, hut insane; jury in
sane; lawyers insane; Court insane in
the main" The noise occasioned By
this display disturbed the proceedings
of the Court then in session. and the
Commonwealth Attorney. J. c. Bak.
er, had the Judge issue an order FOR
Senator Riddleberger TO appear before
Judge Newman and show cause why
he (Riddleberger) should not be fined
and imprisoned for ridiculing the
Judge and jury and disturbing the
court.
At ) o'clock Senator Riddleberger
appeared before the Court and de
Tended himself He said that Judge
Newman had no jurisdiction in the
case, which the Judge denied, and
asked Senator Riddleberger to sit
down until the evidence could be tax.
en- to prove that he (the Senator) was
the one who instigated the ridicule,
and then he said the Court would
hear argument. Senator Riddleberger
would not sit down. and the Court
fined him s25. He then defed the
Court and said:
1 This Court shall not send me Ia
/ jail
/ Judge Newman then told the sheriff
/ to take the Senator to Jail for five DAYS.
Senator Riddlebeager said be would
like to see the man who could take
him to Jail, and sheriff Whitman al
once arrested the Senator and locked
him up.
This action caused much excite.
ment, and this morning, at . O'Clock
mob Of one hundred men, supposed
to be from Edinburg, in Shenandoah
County, scaled the walls Of the iail
/ yard and took the Senator out on lad.
